Half the day away
Half again asleep
I am left alone
With dreams
I wouldn't care if I
I wouldn't carry you
Is it still a lie
If it's true
Do you never ask
Because I'll never tell
We are both the same
Unwell
But how much would you ask
And what did you expect
Of what it is that we
Have left
Oh baby you're a child, you
Fall asleep and I get wild, I
Turn to smoke when you need air, I'm
Sorry baby I don't care
Do you never ask
Because you know I'll say
You're the only one
Please stay
But you're not the only one
And you know it's only fair
When you close your eyes
Who's there
Oh baby you're a child, you
Fall asleep and I get wild, I
Turn to smoke when you need air, I'm
Sorry baby I don't care
You're my only, you're my bride, I
Said I love you, say you are mine
Take it back, I'll take it in 'til
I'll never need air again, I
Take it back, I'll take it in 'til
I never need air again, I
Take it back, I'll take it in 'til
I never need air again
